Abstract:
Multiple myeloma (MM) is a hematological malignancy characterized by proliferation of monoclonal plasma cells in bone marrow,mostly resulting in bone marrow infiltration and bone destruction.X-ray plain film is a primary imaging modality for MM,and it is also used for Durie-Salmon staging and risk stratification of MM.Currently,advanced imaging techniques,such as CT,MRI,PET/CT and PET/MRI have been widely used in the diagnosis and treatment of MM,providing important references for staging accurately,prognostic evaluation and therapeutic monitoring in patients with MM.The imaging progresses in MM were reviewed in this article.
